Its that time of the year again! No, I dont mean Christmas. True story. It was during the festive season like this You know how it is; the Innit Express Yankee Airways and the Euro Shuttle had just ferried many of the Diaspora back to Mother Nigeria. The fields were ripe for the harvest; suitors and prospective brides were everywhere Fathers and mothers were pointing out sons and daughters from good homes to their own sons and daughters #Stayfitandbehealthy fans,Single men and women were busy eyeing each other Toastings and chykings, proposals and counter-proposals, breakups and makeups were in progress. You gerrit? Then in walked this lady I used to know Lets call her Maramma. Beautiful, intelligent young woman She could have any man she wanted She chose a bros from the Italian Division Fine bros, loaded bros You know, during this period, many people dont ask deep, pertinent questions In fact, theres an unwritten code of DADT (Dont Ask, Dont Tell). Some parents avoid it, so do the prospective couples. No one wants to know exactly what business it is youre doing over there, or how you came by your money, or how you survive or where you live or...... again, you gerrit, right? So, Maramma and her handsome Eneke did the DADT Two weeks after theyd met in the village, introduction. One month later, welding. Sorry, wedding. Then it was time for bros to return to Mother Italy in Europa She, faithful, proud and fortunate wife of Eneke, went to see him off at that our famous international airport. As bros was passing through one of those electronic mago-mago detectors that we bought from oyibo, the alarms went off Bros was escorted for a cavity search Lo, it was seen and recorded, that bros was transferring white powder to some people on the other side,.....maybe because their ladies have finished their own white powder and dont like using brown pancake....you gerrit? Thats how Maramma became married to a convict, who is now in one place called kirikiri prison on one island city like that, somewhere in Nigeria. Or shalI I tell you about bros Osas, who hooked up with one fine, well-to-do sister like that, who was an international Commercial Pleasure Facilitator in Innit and Yankee combined? After they got married and she moved him to Yankee and he found out, devastation was his middlename. What am I saying here? Hello friends..........there are plenty young men in this country who are hard-working In fact, the quality of Prince Charmings husband material is inferior to theirs These men are looking for good women to marry Unfortunately, some of those women are overlooking these diamonds in the rough, because all they understand are dollar and euro signs Pounds sterlings nko? Pure ecstasy Ladies, please stop eyeing Superman, when Clark Kent is right in front of you Vice versa for the men. Stop eyeing Catwoman, when Patience Phillips is right there, every day. Im not saying one shouldnt meet and marry someone from the diaspora; Im saying be careful Weve heard too many stories that touch the heart. Dont let foreign residency and money be your main criteria for choosing a spouse this Christmas and beyond Take your time, ask questions, want more. And if you can still hear your intuitions warning bells, make sure you run for the hills Enjoy your boxing day.
